blossoms and birthdays

My heaven would most certainly include pink cherry blossoms of every kind. Especially ones that rain down toward the beginning of summer. Some day last weekend I smelled the first sign of them--kind of a sweet and musky pollen scent.

Ah.... Good weather is coming.

This weekend is Rich's birthday! So I'm in celebration mode. I have SO much to do and pick up before I head over there tomorrow.

Candles.
Cake ingredients.
Picnic ingredients.
Wrap stuff.
Make card.


The list goes on! It's a bit stressful since this is the first birthday out of the two of us since our relationship started. So it's all on me to make it a good one that he will have to "live up to" come September!! ehehe :) I know he just wants to see me though, so that is nice :) :) :)

it's a rainy day.

Why does it always rain on my days off?

Actually, it was quite nice early in the morning...Indy and I went for a walk in the woods behind the complex. I got some more sticks and made 3 more crowns later.

So then it starts raining... I go grocery shopping ... leave some stuff behind and have to drive back... general blah-ness.

Cale had to do sound for the 'Taste of Wheaton' festival (boo!) 

But, I got a lot of stuff done. Laundry. Slowcooker'ed dinner. Etsy. 

Ooh! and guess what--I'm over 150 items sold now! yeeeeaa baaabyy!! I'm so excited. I still get so excited when I sell something--almost as much as the first thing I sold. Ask Cale---I do a happy dance. ;)

Tomorrow's the big thrift shopping day...and post office! whee!

Rainy day blues

THURSDAY.

It hasn't started yet--but it's gonna pour today. :( I would love it at night, like a nice cooling thunderstorm...but it's gonna be on my way to work. Boo.

Here's some newly listed items to cheer ya up :)
